If you can go to Agingcare.com. That is another site that will be of great support to you.
My first question would be do you have his DPOA? If not, I would push for it as it sounds like the daughter is trying to cut you out of the equation. Also, does he have a will? If so, are you the PR of his estate?
Time to get all the legal paperwork in order.
If he cannot be alone at all, that is a real issue, you will not be able to be his 24/7 caretaker for long, it will take you to your knees. See what is available for respite for you, can you hire a caregiver when you go out? Have you checked into what Medicare will provide?
Sending support your way!

God point about the DPOA. He was just talking the other day about leaving specific items in our house (some I bought b4 I met hm) to his daughter.....like a very pricey art piece. Heck, it is mine not his. I know she wants it because she has talked about getting it several times.
Pardon me for saying this, but when we first moved to this home, she plopped in a chair and started crying because she "was afraid she wasn't going to get anything" after we died!! That sure perked up my ears.
